Guest Jeff Vandervoort Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 I have a small backup (2 specific folders) that I do with NTBACKUP in WS2003. I understand that NTBACKUP is replaced in WS2008 with a backup applet that is more like Vista's backup applet...with less granular backup selections than NTBACKUP. Anyone know if the new backup applet allows me to select specific folders for backup? -- Jeff Vandervoort JRVsystems http://www.jrvsystems.com
Guest Jeff Vandervoort Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 Re: WS2008 Backup Applet Had my question answered elsewhere; I'll pass it along for others with the same question. WS2008's backup will not let you select specific folders for backup. -- Jeff Vandervoort JRVsystems http://www.jrvsystems.com "Jeff Vandervoort" <jeffv @ jrvsystems dot com> wrote in message news:F0F0EE9E-7D6A-49C5-8E14-2BE3A71AEA06@microsoft.com... >I have a small backup (2 specific folders) that I do with NTBACKUP in >WS2003.

Guest Meinolf Weber Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 Re: WS2008 Backup Applet Hello Jeff Vandervoort" jeffv jrvsystems dot com, Yes, that's right but you can download a ntbackup for 2008, which allows you to use the files created with the old ntbackup.

Guest Jeff Vandervoort Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Re: WS2008 Backup Applet True...but irrelevant. One still can't select individual folders for backup in WS2008's backup applet. Nor can one back up using the NTBACKUP download at all...only restore. -- Jeff Vandervoort JRVsystems http://www.jrvsystems.com "Meinolf Weber" <meiweb(nospam)@gmx.de> wrote in message news:ff16fb669477c8ca63a91c3404d0@msnews.microsoft.com... > Hello Jeff Vandervoort" jeffv jrvsystems dot com, > > Yes, that's right but you can download a ntbackup for 2008, which allows > you to use the files created with the old ntbackup. > > Best regards > > Meinolf Weber > Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and > confers no rights. > ** Please do NOT email, only reply to Newsgroups > ** HELP us help YOU!!! http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm > >> Had my question answered elsewhere; I'll pass it along for others with >> the same question.
